It's Painted - WooHoo!
Posted June 25th, 2008 at 02:43 AM by Garage Logician
It was a good afternoon to be in my "men's crisis center" indulging myself in a bit of therapy. In other words I was busily involved in doing refinements to a project I've been working on for the last couple weeks. What better therapy can there be than using power tools such as the band-saw and milling/drilling machine? That's not discounting the non-powered hand tools, mostly various files, threading taps and clamps. Yep, it's great therapy.
I had a flat mill bastard file in hand and was busy filing a small plastic piece to an acceptable fit. My brother says I'm way too much of a perfectionist when I get into these kinds of projects. I think he may be right but when I'm done it's a beautiful thing. Anyway that's when the phone rang. The motorcycle trailer is painted and ready for me to pick up. I'd love to say I'm a little excited but it's more like I'm chomping at the bit to go pick it up. I was advised better to let the paint sit and cure over night and pick it up tomorrow. So Come tomorrow morning I'll make the 50 mile trek to pick up the trailer.
By this time tomorrow evening I should have pictures. Hopefully I won't be as bad as people displaying pictures of their grand children.
